Hi, Thipsy -- What a GREAT name you have! And 10 years together by the time you say "I do"? WOW!!! At least you know you're marrying the right person, huh?

HUGE CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement & WELCOME to BDW!!! I think you will find that this site will become the single *most* important tool available to you during your wedding-planning process -- I KNOW it was for me!

Very best wishes as you're planning your way, toward walking down the aisle on your Big Day!! ~ Christie

Congrats Thipsy! This wedding has been a long time coming! Glad you found this site, I'm new too and so far it has been so helpful!! I love reading everyone's stories and to get feedback from them for my own wedding. Happy planning!!
